Barry Fey Did Not Put a Gun to Axl Rose's Head, But ...

... the Denver-area promoter admits the pistol was in his pocket when Mr. Rose left Mile High Stadium on Guns N' Roses' co-headlining show with Metallica. Fey is FULL OF YARNS about his years promoting shows, and he's just penned a book, Backstage Past.

My colleague Dave Herrera, music editor at Denver's Westword, caught up with Fey recently and got him to tell a few tales that didn't make the book. The conversation is well worth a read.

Rest assured, we hear Axl has been showing up -- and sticking around -- for gigs these days. So if you haven't gotten your ticket to see Guns at KeyArena on December 16, feel good about making that purchase over the weekend.
